Warbirds Replicas Hawker Tempest V -Mass Build 2024(part two) .
andrew exton replied to RICHARD WILLS's topic in Warbird kits
first or second batch im not fussed which ever is better for you andy -
Richard knows what he’s doing & all comments make perfect sense 1st choice. P47 ( either version or both ) 2nd choice ( sorry guys ) B25 solid nose version but would have mossie as a very very close second 3rd choice (too many so not to up set the apple cart I would go with majority) probably seafury all subject to the bank manager releasing funds aka. The wife andy

Not that I need another Thunderbolt but 👍can’t have to many jugs or P51,s . For some reason the Macchi doesn’t really do owt for me not that would stop me buying one if it looked right ( well better than the VQ o version ) I do have regrets on missing the yak 9 you did , one on the lines of the fw190 would do me fine but that’s a story for another day andy

andrew exton replied to RICHARD WILLS's topic in Warbird kits
your right in what you say Richard i was just having a playful nudge at Stu as we fly at same club , most of my flying has been electric for last few years , i do have some bigger petrol stuff when i get it finished but keep getting side track with smaller electric its just so clean & handy to transport among other things for me , & your kits have been brilliant over the years andy -

It will take some arm twisting to get Stu to convert to electric but he’s slowly getting there andy -

Warbird Replicas FW190 newbie build (or possibly some wellingtons)
andrew exton replied to Lipo Man's topic in Warbird kits
Hi i usually find nothing sticks to Matt paint in the long run , I normally give my models a light coat of clear gloss were I want transfer/ stickers etc then a light coat of satin all over the entire model , right or wrong I don’t know just my personal preference Andy -

Warbird Replicas FW190 - just the faffing about bits....
andrew exton replied to mightypeesh's topic in Warbird kits
nice touch the fan but i dont have a printer how much if someone was willing to print one ?? andy -
on the fence with the spit / 109 but would probably say yes if the bank manger said ok i have the wr spit flys great once i finally got it set to how i like it though our field does knock hell out of the retracts & also clipped wing due to losing a fight with car door 🤬 im more into the pacific fighters but like you say round fuzz . do like the ki_61 p40 combo though . P51s i cant have enough off Spits would dearly love one of the griffon powered versions as opposed to a merlin version (that would probably offend quite few folk ) this probably doesn't help richard one little bit andy

no worries Graham thanks for the reply il keep following forums etc rather than pestering you or others for that matter andy
-
build thread ??? tried several times with foam total disasters 😖 andy
-
Regarding the mossie , it’s probably the only practical & affordable way I could get/do one andy
-
cant answer that question but i had one of your La7 loved it just looked as though it meant business which i guess was part of its appeal to me , would settle for another or any of the lavockins or yak 9s or migs for that matter andy

hobby flight u s airforce insignia red spot on match if that helps
-
Tempest please Richard , might be tempted with the 190 at a future date if any more batches were done but not critical , any others a possibility if these go well ?? cheers andy
